The single-story annexe (on the far left of the main photo) is attached to our family home and has its own entrance so you can come and go as you please. Dating from the 1950s, it comprises two light and spacious south / west facing double bedrooms, hall, shower room and kitchen, and is surrounded by a large walled garden.
We provide freshly-laundered bedlinen & towels and each room is equipped with a double bed, sofa, table, wardrobe, television/DVD player, hairdryer and Wi-Fi. Both double beds have new Silentnight Easycare Deluxe mattresses (medium to firm) and we use White Company bedlinen. There is limitless hot water from the combi-boiler and the central heating is on an automatic timer, which you can easily override if you need a warmer or cooler room.
The small kitchen has a microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge and is stocked with tea & coffee plus self-service breakfast items (fruit juices, cereals, toast & preserves, fresh fruit, yoghurt, pastries). Note that the kitchen does not have a cooker or washing machine.
There is plenty of parking available on our driveway, directly outside the annexe.
BEDROOM ONE
This south-facing room is light and spacious and has a double bed. Views out over the walled garden.
BEDROOM TWO
The second bedroom can sleep up to 3 people, having a double bed plus a single sofa-bed which has a proper mattress. (Note that the single bed will normally be presented as a sofa, so let us know when booking if you would like it to be made up as a bed). The large picture-window faces due west and overlooks the herb garden.
PLEASE NOTE
Bbookings for 2 people or fewer will have the use of only one of the bedrooms unless by prior arrangement, as there will be a small additional charge.
DOGS
Well-behaved dogs are welcome (by arrangement).

Nastend is a quiet rural hamlet on a 'no through' road, accessed via a single-track sunken lane. There are only 12 houses in total and we're surrounded by open fields.
Situated just off the Severn Vale, close to the Cotswold escarpment, the Cotswold Way national trail passes just 2 miles from here. There are plenty of beautiful walks in this area, from the high open spaces of the limestone commons, through the beechwoods along the escarpment to the fields and lanes in the valleys.
The recently restored Stroudwater canal goes right past the end of our lane and is perfect for walking, running or cycling towards Stroud, which is 5 miles away. From there, you can either continue along the canal towards Chalford and Cirencester, or take the old route of the railway to Nailsworth which has been converted to a cycle track. We regularly use these safe, scenic routes and can recommend various very lovely cafés along the way.
There are plenty of places to eat out, our local is the very popular Old Badger at Eastington, which is just over a mile away. We also spend many happy evenings at the Bell Inn at Selsley which is always excellent. Both are very popular, so we would recommend advance booking. We have lots of other favourites... too many to list here!

Penny was an absolute gem of a host and person! Her home and garden are idyllic, and the annex where we stayed is very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The property is located in a small, quaint hamlet and we felt we had plenty of privacy. We arrived late after a long day and she did everything possible to help us settle in. My family and I had lovely time chatting with her, and wish we could've stayed longer! This is a perfect, rural escape in the Cotswolds.

Olivia2016-07-17T00:00:00Z

Slept like a log! Perfect quick stopover after a very busy & long day - thank you so much.

Rach2015-09-06T00:00:00Z

Although Penny's place is just a mile from the M5, it is in a very quiet, secluded location - yet just a short hop to Stonehouse. The room itself was comfy and well equipped for my needs. There was a lovely, fluffy duvet and the bed was very comfortable. I got a warm welcome from Alistair who showed me some routes on an OS map. The nearby canal was a calm oasis to ride into Stonehouse and, a little further on, Stroud. Highly recommended!

Andy2017-04-20T00:00:00Z

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay in Penny's annexe. The house is beautiful and in a superb location. We had a lovely bike ride along the canal following Penny's recommendation and it was a great way to take in the beautiful surroundings. Penny and Alistair were wonderful hosts and really helpful, furnishing us with bikes and a map to help us make the most of our stay. Thank you so much again and we hope to stay with you again in future.

Stephanie2015-10-31T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely 1 night stay in the annex attached to Penny's cottage. The accommodation was spacious, comfortable and extremely clean and the surrounding gardens delightful. There were plenty of provisions for a serve yourself breakfast which was an added bonus. Penny was very friendly and amenable and helped us out enormously by printing out some forgotten documents for us. A thoroughly enjoyable stay and I would have no hesitation in staying with Penny again.

Tracey2015-08-31T00:00:00Z

Very pretty house, lovely garden and friendly and helpful host. Beds were too hard for us and the place smelt a little damp.

Pete2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Penny is the perfect host! We had a great stay.

Moin2017-05-01T00:00:00Z

Beautiful annexe, well prepared and lots of food. Lovely area wish we had more time to adventure around the canals and perfect countryside. So close to the motorway but seemed so removed from it.

Jenny was a great host – friendly and helpful – making my first experience of Airbnb a very positive one. The room was comfortable and clean, with a good shower in the bathroom. The house is very close to the centre of Stonehouse and the railway station. For anyone attending a function at the Stonehouse Court Hotel (as I did) this is also perfect. Thanks Jenny.

Stewart2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

Fantastic place to stay I certainly recommend

Great central location near train and bus routes for anyone working or staying in Stonehouse. Very pleasant, accommodating and experienced Airbnb host.

Colin2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

Jenny is an exceptional host who makes your stay extremely comfortable. Stonehouse is a lovely area close to many attractions & a short drive to Cheltenham & Gloucester. I highly recommend staying with Jenny in a beautiful part of Gloucestershire.

If you wish to stay for a day, a week, or longer, you must book with Floris and his wonderfully kept secret abode hidden in almost plain sight in Stonehouse! It's a private place, almost hard to find, but it is peaceful and quiet and the views from the front of the building are great. You look out over vast green lawns and there's a small wood behind the building which gives the place a sense of privacy. There's on-site parking and an envigorating walk up the hill for a spectacular view of the Cotswolds, especially at sunset. Floris's ample bedroom with en suite bathroom is comfortable, warm when you need it to be, cool when not, and is on the ground floor. Ample towels and bathroom accessories are provided as well as WiFi, color TV, tea things, hairdryer, etc. The room is clean, bright, and airy. The host is friendly, helpful, and a joy to talk to. Stonehouse is just 2 or 3 miles from Stroud and the M5 is just down the road as the crow flies. From here you can easily drive into Gloucester using the M5 or go south down to Bristol. Very convenient. All-in-all, a very pleasant stay, quiet, and private with a wonderful host who respects your privacy and your quirks!

Elaine2017-05-11T00:00:00Z

Great clean, comfortable space. Floris was easy to get hold of and responsive. We had a car and he was able to offer parking.

I was only staying for one night for a nearby wedding, but this was exactly what I was looking for – a nice room nearby, which had a bathroom and parking. Floris warmly welcomed me, showed me the room, and was very thoughtful. This was perfect for a short stay, and I would have been fine staying there longer.

Joseph2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

Really enjoyed the stay and would book again.

Whitney2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Really nice quiet room in a private residence in a lovely location

Ron2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

Floris was a great host. He was very understanding of transportation issues that delayed me over four hours and communicated perfectly. His room is immaculately clean and very comfortable. A wonderful place to stay in the Cotswolds.

Mike2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

This was a great place for us to stay the night while visiting the area: simple and straight forward, and had everything that we needed. Floris was friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome.

Great views, walks and cycle rides in nearby AONB fields & woods, the 'Cotswold Way' long distance path, old Randwick village, Stroud town & the River Severn.
This newly-built annex is light, warm, has high ceilings, comfortable bed and a very adequate kitchen for self-catering.
Good for singles or couples, we could also accommodate a child or dog.

Vernon's place has a wonderful view. There are many places to take lovely walks. Our dog was in heaven. Vernon made us feel welcome and comfortable. We stayed almost a week and were able to develop a routine. Telly and good wifi were available. There's a pub about 4 doors away that serves good food and has a cozy atmosphere.

Nancy2016-11-30T00:00:00Z

Our stay with Vernon was quite short, but worth the trip. My girlfriend and I stayed to see one of our favourite bands play in Stroud, and Vernon's place was ideal for exploring the countryside and enjoying Stroud itself in the evening. Vernon was very helpful and gave us lots of advice, and kindly offered to drive us into the town with our bags. The accommodation itself is very clean, modern and simple - and the bed very comfortable. The Cotswolds are worth a walk too!

Callum2017-02-12T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely stay in the annex! Vernon was a very welcoming host and the annex had everything you need to cook for yourself. There are some lovely walks right on the doorstep and Vernon has even provided some guides to local walks and things to see.

Sam2017-06-17T00:00:00Z

Vernon's place is really lovely, just as on the photos plus a great view. Vernon is a very kind host, he drove us to Sainsbury's and even invited for a drink which unfortunately we did not make it to because we were too tired after many hours of hiking in the breathtaking Cotswolds. The house is clean and perfect for a couple, the kitchen is fully equipped. The supermarkets are about 30-mins walk away, the train station is a bit further, but the Costwolds Way is very nearby. Highly recommended!

Natalia2017-06-05T00:00:00Z

I needed to stay near Stonehouse for a business trip and was fed up with having to stay in hotels and not being able to bring my little dog Teddy. So, I found this perfect annexe which was local distance to the office and allowed for me to bring Ted. Firstly, Vern had sent me a message with clear instructions on how to find them, so I had no trouble with getting there ok. When we got there he kindly showed me around the annexe and where certain things were. It was spotlessly clean and spacious and nice and warm as they have under floor heating. I had a lovely nights sleep every night the bed was lovely a cosy and so quiet (unlike the hotels I stay in you can hear people walk around above your head). I had planned on rushing back at lunch time every day in order to take Teddy out for a walk, but Vern had kindly offered to take him out everyday with his friendly little dog scruffy as they had become friends on the first evening there. Due to being there on business I didn't make the most of the location but it's a lovely area and great location if you were visiting for a nice weekend away or to do the Cotswold walk. It's a lovely area and such a nice place to stay with great hosts that give you your privacy but are easily contactable if you have any questions. Would definitely recommend and will choose to stay here again next time!

Damian2017-01-18T00:00:00Z

Vernon greeted us on arrival (even though we were three hours late due to traffic), the location of the house is wonderful, 10/15 mins uphill to the Cotswolds Way walk which we really enjoyed. It's perfect for a simple rural escape. The kitchen is well laid out & for cooking in the Annex, view is amazing & sunrise you can't beat!

Lora2016-11-12T00:00:00Z

Great stay at the Annex. Vernon and his wife were very hospitable and welcoming. Gave some great tips on places to eat and things to do locally. Highly recommend the annex as a base. Thank you

Sharla2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

Vernon met us as arranged at the annex and showed us around. The annex is in a quiet location with great views, slightly spoilt by the new houses built in front. The annex is clean and bright with a small kitchenette, lounge, bedroom and bathroom. The lounge has a tv, 2 seater settee and a table and 2 chairs. The kitchen has a fridge, hob and oven and a sink. There were plates, bowls, glasses, mugs, cutlery, tea, coffee some eggs and milk supplied. The bedroom had a hanging rail, shelves and very comfortable double bed. The bathroom had a good size shower cubicle with powerful shower, drawers, cabinet with mirror, sink and a small washing machine. The wifi was ok for checking emails but we could not stream any tv programmes. The surrounding countryside is lovely and there are some good walks to do straight from the house. We had a meal at a local pub, The Vine Tree, which is a 10 minute walk up the hill, which was very good. I would definitely recommend staying at The Annex and Vernon and his wife are great hosts.

Very quiet, bright, and spacious home in a lovely new Eco community designed by Kevin McCloud, situated on the edge of Stroud. Only an hour and a half direct train ride from Paddington Station, London, and only 10 minutes drive from the M5 motorway, exit 13. The room is available as a single or double and includes tea and coffee making facilities, freeview tv, hairdryer and towels. The room has its own private en-suite bathroom.

The room is in a very quiet location, with no sounds of traffic, overlooking the garden.

Our home is in the Cotswolds and is within 5 mins walking distance of the Cotswold way, a 25 min walk or 5 minutes drive to Stroud town centre and 10 minutes drive to Junction 13 M5 Motorway. Trains run direct to Stroud from Paddington in London, only taking 1 and a half hours. The canal and woods are very close by. Stroud has an award winning farmers market every Saturday and has many relaxing cafes and arty shops to visit.

Great room in quiet area and with backyard view :), Karin is great host, I had no issue with booking/accommodation arrangement, there was parking outside, so i fully enjoyed the mobility and stay itself ;)

Branislav2015-12-03T00:00:00Z

A very good host, warm welcome beautiful clean house. I would recommend it. The listing is accurate

christine2015-10-08T00:00:00Z

I had a lovely, peaceful stay at Karin's. The room is spacious and comfortable and the shower in the en-suite is just fab ... plus there were lovely breakfasts with home made bread! The neighbourhood is great too ... pretty central but quiet at the same time. Would definitely recommend.

Breakfast was great with fresh coffee and homemade bread! The house was within walking distance to Stroud town centre where we found a couple of nice wine bars. Lots of lovely walks in the Cotswolds and surrounding area which were very accessible. Thanks for a nice stay!

Detached house close to amenities and beautiful countryside; minutes walk from Cotswold Way; 3 miles from M5. You will have a comfortable bedroom, own bathroom, and use of garden and two lounges. The TV lounge, which is upstairs, can be used as a further single bedroom. I have an all-electric car so you would be able to charge your car during your stay.
I am very flexible about timings and am happy to accept last-minute bookings. I am also able to serve breakfast at any time.

My house is modern but comfortable. It is very light as I have windows (glass ones) on all four sides. From the guest bedroom there is a lovely view of the top of Selsley Common.

The Five Valleys area around Stroud is incredibly hilly. However my house is located "on the flat" but it takes minutes to get to the hills. I am also very near the canal that goes through Stroud and has an easy-to-walk towpath with a great café on the way. Guests are amazed at the scenery around Stroud - it is stunning and really a secret gem.

Lovely hostess with a modern very comfortable home and a welcomed big bath! Great ambassador for her area, knows it well.

We were lucky to stay with Adele for night while walking Cotswold Way, which is only few hundred meters away. Adele was responsive before we arrived and we were greeted with hot tea soon after arrival. It warmed us up in this cold February day. The room was clean and comfortable. We both had a good rest. We also enjoyed talking with Adele later that night, sharing our life stories. Thank you Adele for making our stay a truly enjoyable experience!

We had a great long weekend here. Adele was a very welcoming host and happy to help with any of our questions about the area; as well as find out what was on when we were about. The breakfast provided was a treat and set us up for the day ahead. Adele has a lovely modern house and the bedroom and private bathroom are excellent facilities. We were after walking and it is perfectly placed around 5 minute walk from the Cotswold way (keep an eye out for the sign!). There are easy circular routes to follow with a variety of lengths. All in all, a great walking break.

Ella2015-08-31T00:00:00Z

I arrived in the late afternoon after hiking the Cotswold Way Trail. Adele was there when I arrived and welcomed me into her home. The room was clean and the breakfast was great. A fun experience. I would definitely stay with Adele again.

Beautiful old home, spacious grounds, very private. Very close to Cotswold Way, a 45 min. walk to downtown. Very welcoming hosts, pleasant, clean, cozy guest space. Good breakfast. Our hosts went above and beyond when they picked me up at the station, and several times drove us places. Would go again!

If you want a quiet, peaceful overnight stay then Yvonne's is the place for you. We stopped there on the way to Birmingham and it was the perfect stop over destination being only 10 minutes from the M5. Yvonne was very welcoming and having a private bathroom was a real bonus.

Yvonne and her family made us feel very welcomed by inviting us to a nice cup of tea and a chat when we came. It was great getting to know them, they're such a lovely and nice family. They helped us a lot by telling us about how to get to the Cotswolds and further. The neighbourhood was also really pretty and quite, so we had a good sleep. Comfortable beds! And everything was tidy and clean. We needed to leave quite early, because they wanted to leave as well, but even though we got some breakfast. Thanks for the great stay - would really like to come again!

The loveliest family you could possibly stay with! We were warmly welcomed with a cup of tea and great conversation. The two dogs were very friendly. Our room and bathroom were clean and inviting.

Lovely and light three bedroomed terraced ecohouse situated in a quiet residential community, a mile from Stroud town centre. The house is a family home with high ceilings and big windows. The garden is small but private and south-facing. The open plan nature of the downstairs is lovely. The main bedroom is ensuite and there is a family bathroom and separate downstairs toilet too. One parking space at the front of the house. Ideal location to explore Stroud and the Cotswolds.

Note that this house is part of a residential community and so is ideal for couples or families, but not larger groups.

Cashes Green is a predominantly residential neighbourhood. There is a local shop, fish and chip shop and pub all within two minutes of the house.

Thanks to Jamie for providing such a lovely home to stay in, we really enjoyed the space, clean and calm, comfort, and great retro furniture! It was lovely to be greeted by you and your beautiful daughters too:) Very much recommend this fab eco-house for stays in Stroud. Great value too!

Irene2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

This is a very cosy cottage and has lots of character. It's not far from Stroud centre, about 5mins driving or 25mins walk. We enjoyed our stay, with two minor quibbles: First, the kitchen had not been cleaned very thoroughly, for example there were crumbs etc. around, which is a bit disappointing given that this place charges a cleaning fee. Second, the cottage is right next to a Vauxhall garage which leaves very bright lights on that shine into the rooms all night. The curtains can black most of the light out, but it takes away from the atmosphere a little.

Catherine (Rachana) was a very gracious host, taking us on with less than 3hours notice while balancing other commitments. Nonetheless, we felt welcomed into her space and had a lovely cup of organic herbal tea before walking to the town centre. The house was a bit dusty but that did not detract from the beauty of the wood accents, vibrant colours and unique charm. We had a solid sleep after the 30minute pleasant stroll back from town and thank Rachana again for the delish chai tea.

Jessinta2016-07-02T00:00:00Z

The host canceled this reservation 4 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Katherine2017-04-12T00:00:00Z

Catherine send us detailed discription how to find the house, without which we would have been lost. She was in contact answering all queries and advising where to find keys, room etc\ ensuring we had all we needed including a nice cup of tea after the long drive. The room was very cosy and comfortable with the bathroom right next door. Both her cats very lovely and friendly (made me miss ours), Catherine let us use the kitchen for our breakfast and also made me the most wonderful porridge one morning that set me up for another long walk for the day. There is a small convenience shop nearby for essentials and the Sunday Paper. With Catherine and Waynes help we had the most fantastic sunday lunch and visited some excellent places which we may have missed without their suggestions. We loved it so much and are already planning another visit in February. Fantastic place, central to go to Broadway or Bath or Bibury....... Thoroughly recommend

Daniela2016-10-25T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home, complete with two characterful and friendly cats - what more can you ask for. Catherine was the perfect host, making us feel welcome from the moment we booked.

A lovely room in an outstanding typically English landscape : Carey's home is just the perfect place to enjoy the Cotswolds. And the hostess is so nice ! She welcomed us like family !

Sophie2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Carey was such a wonderful surprise! Extremely helpful providing us very detailed information how to get there and aware of our arrival. Carey hosted us always with a genuine smile on her face, extremely kind and welcoming, as well as her sweet cat, Miss Pie! The room is impeccable in every way, full of details and cosy... and it has an impressive view to the countryside! Totally recommend for many reasons. Thank you, Carey!

Very comfortable home, fabulous views of the country-side and gracious host. Highly recommend.

Dave2017-06-29T00:00:00Z

We had one night stay at Carey's place and it was wonderful. We are both light sleepers and when I told her before arrive, she changed her light curtains to blackout one for us. The view is very nice, we had breakfast together in the garden. Carey is also very knowledgeable about where to explore in the area. Definitely recommend to anyone would like a gateway in the country side.

Such a lovely view. Seeing wild deer from our bedroom was cool. Carey was lovely and very relaxed which made for a great homely feel to our stay. It as nice to be able to be able to put some food in the fridge

Michael2017-05-01T00:00:00Z

I was visiting Stroud for one day and night to attend a hen party. Carey kindly let me check-in extra early and leave my car parked on her drive. Carey's home is truly lovely and could not have been bettered. It was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The décor, bedlinen and furnishings were beautiful and everything was of very high quality. The private bathroom was supplied with heaps of fluffy towels, gorgeous soap and even toothpaste! Carey could not have made me feel more welcome, relaxed and at home. I ate breakfast on the sunny terrace in the pretty garden overlooking rolling green fields, with Carey as excellent company. Carey's is close to central Stroud whilst being surrounded by idyllic countryside. An excellent place to stay.

The Barn, Middleyard is a beautiful 350 year old stone-built converted barn with glorious views across the Cotswolds and the Severn Valley. Next door to the owner, the property is located on the edge of National Trust common land near Stroud, boasts a quiet location and yet has a pub and shop within walking distance. It is easily accessible by public transport but has parking for 3 cars if coming by road. There is a private garden with patio. A cot is available for infants and we welcome dogs.

The Barn offers 3 bedrooms with plenty of storage and hanging space. We provide bed linen and towels as well as spare pillows and blankets. We can provide a high chair, cot, changing mat and baby bath on request. The kitchen is very well equipped with a toaster, kettle, microwave and plenty of cooking utensils. There is a large walk-in pantry for storing food. There is good-sized hall cupboard with plenty of hooks for hats & coats and space for a buggy.

We are in the middle of the South Cotswolds and so there are lots of wonderful views from the property. The Cotswolds Way runs past the Barn - this is real walker's country but the hills are gently rolling so the ups aren't too steep and the downs aren't too hard on the knees. Dogs will enjoy running off the lead on one of the local commons, Selsley Common being the closest. If walking isn't your thing, then there is always the local Stroud Farmer's market or visit nearby Nailsworth which is becoming quite well known in the foodie world.

Beautifully clean and very well-equipped cottage with gorgeous walks nearby.

Caroline2017-04-17T00:00:00Z

We stayed at The Barn whilst visiting relatives in the Cotswolds. We stayed with 5 adults and one 7 month old baby. The barn was the perfect size, lovely and clean, with a well equipped kitchen and large dining table for family dinners and games! It's tricky to find places with so much parking in the Cotswolds so that is also a big plus for the Barn! It was a really relaxing place to stay and Petrina's lemon drizzle cake on arrival was delicious!

My place is in a unique, award winning eco community development in a very friendly neighbourhood. Here you will have a cosy double room with use of your own private bathroom. The house is a mile outside of Stroud, close to canal walks, local parks and amazing woodland on our doorstep. Stroud is a fun and quirky place to explore, the weekend farmers market has won awards and not to be missed. With stunning Cotswold countryside close by its a good base to explore the area.

Very cosy room. House is very light and spacious.

Very friendly community. Lovely area with communal garden and green space to enjoy.

Ceris is a nice and welcoming host. Her eco house is situated in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. The room is clean and tidy with a bed very comfortable. I was totally satisfied and I would recommend her lovely home for a stay any time.

Luis2017-06-10T00:00:00Z

Ceris's place was exactly as described - a small room in a lovely house with a comfy bed. The place was spotlessly clean, great bathroom facilities, warm home. Ceris was fantastically helpful and welcoming - a perfect host. Highly recommended. Note however that Airbnb have the location slightly wrong. Check with Ceris!

Kerry2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

Ceris was so helpful and accommodating. Her place is super nice and cosy, definitely suitable for anyone who wants to have an escape from the city life and enjoy the lush country life in the beautiful Cotswolds. She also provided such great hospitality and I would definitely recommend her place to anyone. Thanks Ceris ! :)

Shafiq2017-01-29T00:00:00Z

Ceris is a warm and welcoming host. Her eco house is situated in a beautiful and quiet neighbourhood. The room is snug but the bed is super comfortable. My husband and I slept so well. In the morning we had a filling breakfast of cereal and toast with great chats all the way through. Ceris is a kind and warm hearted lady, I would recommend her lovely home for a stay any time.

Anna2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

My stay at Ceris's place exceeded expectations. The room is immaculate and the bed very comfortable. It was inspiring to take a look around Ceris's eco community - such a great place. Topped off with a healthy breakfast, it was the perfect Air B&B experience! Thanks Ceris and Ezra :)

Anna2017-08-11T00:00:00Z

Ceris is very nice and her place is clean and tidy.

Warm and inviting, Middleyard Farm cottage is the perfect spot for walking, relaxing and soaking up this area of outstanding natural beauty. You’ll love it because of the kitchen, the cosiness, the views, and the location.

Four of us stayed here for a weekend and the house was excellent - very spacious, a well equipped kitchen, and extremely comfortable beds! We had a fabulous time soaking up the countryside during the day and cooking big dinners and breakfasts back at the house. A car would be useful, but we were absolutely fine as the bus to the station stops right outside the house. Andrew and Lisa were great hosts, would highly recommend!

Jun2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

I was in a group of six adults and we all thoroughly enjoyed staying in Andrew's cottage for the weekend. The house is absolutely lovely, with a great open plan kitchen/diner and cosy living room. The space was big enough for all of us to enjoy together. The local area is very nice, with friendly locals and some great pubs and walks in the area. Definitely recommend!

Rachel2016-10-09T00:00:00Z

Love place in a beautiful area. Greatvwalks from the house and nice and quiet. Weather too hot to light the log burner but can't have sverything

Bob2017-06-05T00:00:00Z

Lovely stay at this beautiful cosy cottage with great amenities. Andrew was very reactive and we had a small issue on check in that was sorted within minutes of contacting him! Great host and place, would recommend to anyone wanting a Cotswolds getaway.

Gerald2016-12-12T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely break at the cottage. It was very well equipped, minus a freezer. For family's, you need to bring your high chair and I would reccomend bringing a travel stairgate too if you have little ones. Overall a wonderful stay and Andrew Andy Lisa were very helpful, would definitely stay again. Thank you.

Ellie2017-04-18T00:00:00Z

A beautiful cottage in an equally beautiful setting for a quiet weekend away. Will definitely be returning.

Faye 2016-11-06T00:00:00Z

The house was beautiful. Very cosy, comfortable and clean. Enjoyed sitting out in the garden in the sun and lighting the fire in the evenings. Great location just off the Cotswolds Way and other paths. Communication with Andrew and Lisa was quick and clear. Would happily stay again.

This delightful semi-detached barn is set in a tranquil setting in a village on the edge of the Cotswolds in Gloucestershire. Based on a small working dairy farm that is steeped in history dating back to the late 10th century and with views over open countryside and backing onto an impressive village church it makes it the perfect rural getaway.
You will find the local pub 100 yards up the road, ideal for a drink or a spot of lunch after walking the number of rambling paths on your door step. Jump in the car and within twenty minutes you will find the historic towns of Gloucester where parts of Harry Potter films were made in the imposing Gloucester Cathedral and also the chic spa town of Cheltenham wits its impressive shopping, restaurants and buzzing bar scene.
The barn itself offers an open plan sitting room/diner, kitchen and two large bedrooms with original beams. It also has its own private hot tub and courtyard where you can sit and watch the sun go down while enjoying a BBQ with your family and friends.
Stanley Barn is ideal for the kids and by prior arrangement you can visit the farm and see the baby calves and also watch the cows being milked. Stanley Barn can be booked with Leonard Barn and/or Priory Barn which are all located on the same farm.

Excellent cotswold walking in the surrounding areas. Minchinhampton, Rodborough and Selsley Common to name but a few. You'll also find the highly acclaimed Winstones icecream parlour at Rodborough Common.
Famous farmers market on Saturday's which has excellent local produce and an array of hot food stalls. The town consists mainly of independent shops and there are also plenty of cafes.
Lovely cotswolds pubs, ask us for recommendations! There is usually live music in Stroud on the weekends.
Plenty of yoga and arty type classes in and around Stroud too.

We really enjoyed our stay to Carly's, she is very nice and kind, the house is beautiful and the dogs really friendly. We hope to come back one day!

sandra2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Hosts were amazing, generous and friendly. The house is lovely! We had such a good time staying with our hosts and couldn't have felt more welcome. Lovely, clean and tidy room, we slept like rocks. An amazing extra plus when staying is the dogs, very beautiful and friendly.

Lars2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Carly and John are amazing hosts. We had a wonderful time in the Cotswold. We felt really welcome during our stay. Thanks to their tips, we discovered lovely places to eat and walk.

Great value , Very clean and comfortable room . I would highly recommend a stay with Carly and Jonny . They are brilliant hosts and a really nice couple .

Stephen2017-08-11T00:00:00Z

Cannot recommend this place enough. Carly and Jonny are exceptional hosts and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. When friends of theirs visited they invited us to socialise with them and made us feel a part of the group. The room is exactly as it appears in photos, the bed is comfortable and the private bathroom was extremely clean and well stocked. We didn't take advantage of the kitchen, as we were attending Stroud Fringe, however breakfast supplies, tea and coffee were laid out for us each morning and we felt that if we had wanted to use the kitchen, we would've been more than welcome. The property was clean throughout all areas we had access to and the dogs were super friendly. The best Airbnb experience we've had to date and we wouldn't hesitate to book again!

Kirsty2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

Staying with Carly and Jonny was a little like home from home. Beautiful home, wonderful hosts and the area was full of exciting places to explore. Highly recommend staying here, really enjoyed our weekend alway. Thank you so much!

Laura2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Carly and John are great hosts. Reliable welcoming and friendly. The house is spotless and beautifully decorated. Especially the fridge. The bed is so comfortable the en suite easy and good shower. Breakfast was good. Would definitely stay again and recommend

My place is close to a great variety of walks and views. You’ll love my place because of it's homeliness and the location. This room is on the second floor with great views of the surrounding countryside.
I have 2 other rooms available both with single beds, which are listed separately.

I had a very comfortable stay in Ebley I could not fault it. Celia is a very friendly host and will do all she can to make your stay pleasant. I would certainly stay there again in the future.

Mark2016-08-06T00:00:00Z

Celia was fabulously accommodating, from the days preceding our trip to the lovely home that she opened up to us. Celia's own artwork adorned the walls, and the atmosphere of the house was friendly and cosy.
